so im 28 weeks pregnant yey but how many months?? do you include the month you got pregnant or the month your due?


Im sure i knew this info yesterday lmao :haha:
 
You'd be 7 months! :)

Even though there are more than 4 weeks in a month, I think it's safe and easiest to describe it as 7 months. If you wanted to be technical, you could separate it into like 6.8 months or something weird like that lol (I made that number up) but I plan on just saying 7 months when I hit 28 weeks.
 
Yeah it's 7 months, you just divide your number of weeks by 4 (number of weeks in a month) and bob's your uncle!

lol thanks :D ive been racking my brain all day and couldnt figure it out !
 
It's actually still less than 6 and a half months. I'm 30 weeks but won't be 7 months for another week yet. At this point your best bet is to look at your due date and count back from there. If you are 28 weeks now you are due around mid November, so you won't be 7 months until mid-September which is still 3 weeks away. I know it's extremely tempting to think yourself further along but that way will ultimately drive you crazy as you will be calculating yourself as 9 months pregnant at the point where you are really only turning 8 months. Then that last month will drag like no other.

agreed! i always counted as actual months as 4 weeks isnt a month! if you was 7 months at 28 weeks then that would mean at 36 weeks you would be 9 months not eight!

however, most people count 4 weeks so just say what you want really haha!
 
This is why they don't count pregnancies in months anymore, it's too in accurate!
Just stick with 28 weeks.

40 wks = 9 months
4.44 weeks = 1 month
28 weeks / 4.44 = 6.3 months
 
haha I always hate when people ask how far along I am and I tell them in weeks and they are like soo what is that in months... I'm like " I don't know pregnancy is measured in weeks!"
 
my granny asked me this morning and i couldnt figure it out, i confused her so she ended up going along with " so baby will come in november... ok then! " lol
 
I usually tell people what week I am when they ask how far along I am.. rarely ever get someone who asks how much that is in months, I'll just tell them "I'm about X months" or tell them how many months I have left
